The last days of the store that has been in this position since the 1970s. Habitat are one of four stores that still retain their original position within the shopping complex after the area was completely revamped in the mid 1990s changing it from a bleak, windswept concrete jungle into a modern american type mall. The others; WH Smith, British Home Stores and Dorothy Perkins all front out onto the open square next to Western Road whereas Habitat were the last to survive inside.
